Bedload transport in two creeks at the ice-free area of the Baranowski Glacier, King George Island, West Antarctica
This paper presents a unique case study and methodology for measurements of the bedload transport in the two, newly created troughs at the forefield of the Baranowski Glacier: Fosa and Siodło creeks. The weather conditions and the granulometric analysis are presented and discussed briefly. Rating cu...
